YWN has learned that the American Yeshiva Bachur studying at Rav Tzvi Kaplan’s Yeshiva in Eretz Yisroel, who has been in a coma for nearly a week, has come out of his coma and is talking.
The 20-year-old Bochur from Lakewood was playing football last Thursday night, when he fell and broke his leg. Hatzolah and MDA treated him and transported him to a hospital, where it was determined that he needed surgery. Sources tell YWN that a piece of the bone went into his bloodstream, caused a bloodclot, and R”L stopping his breathing. He was in a coma and on a respirator since then.
The Bochur remains in serious condition, as a complicated surgery on his leg is pending.
Please be Mispallel for Mordechai Shalom ben Sarah
